Loosed Words: The mystic poet
Kabir (1440 - 1518)
There is nothing but water in the holy pools.Translated verse from the article Kabir: In the bliss of Sahaj.
I know, I have been swimming in them.
All the gods sculpted of wood or ivory can't say a word.
I know, I have been crying out to them.
The sacred Books of the east are nothing but words.
I looked through their covers one day sideways.
What Kabir talks of is only what he has lived through.
If you have not lived through something it is not true.
